Key features
- Individual tool excluding battery and charger
- Quiet battery chainsaw for noise-sensitive areas
- For home users and professionals
- Excellent cutting performance and precise cut
- Chain is easy to re-tension thanks to the STIHL quick chain tensioning system
- STIHL QUICK CHAIN TENSIONING: RE-TENSION THE SAW CHAIN TOOL-FREE. Thanks to STIHL Quick Chain Tensioning, you can tension your saw chain quickly and without tools, thanks to the adjusting wheel. Turning the adjusting wheel to the left releases tension on the saw chain, and turning the adjustment wheel to the right tensions the saw chain. The guide bar will be automatically secured when you tighten the sprocket cover.
- TOOL-FREE FUEL CAP FOR OIL TANKS: QUICK AND EASY TO USE. Thanks to the bayonet closure, you can open and close the tool-free fuel cap in just a few simple steps.
- CONTROL LEVER WITH POTENTIOMETER FUNCTION: FOR COMFORTABLE HANDLING. The control lever with potentiometer function allows you to control the speed of your battery chainsaw on an infinitely variable basis, and in this way easily control and adjust its performance as needed.
- ERGONOMIC UNLOCK BUTTON: FOR SAFE STARTING. By pressing the unlock button, you can enable controlled operation of the power tool. Only after it has been pressed is it possible to operate the trigger button. Activation is indicated by a flashing LED. After that, you must start working within 5 seconds or the power tool will switch off again. This prevents the power tool from starting unintentionally when stationary, for example during transport or maintenance.
- TWO-HANDED OPERATION: ENSURES COMFORTABLE WORK. Your STIHL chainsaw has an ergonomically shaped handle and a comfortable rear control handle with soft components. Thanks to this two-handed operation, you can work comfortably, effortlessly and safely in all positions.
- RUBBER SOFT HANDLE WITH ERGO LEVER: FOR COMFORTABLE HANDLING. Thanks to the soft components on the control handle, your work tool sits comfortably in the hand and can be guided safely. The softgrip handle also improves your grip, especially when wet. The ergonomic lever also makes work easier, as there is no need to unlock the machine again while working, as long as one hand continuously remains on the rear handle.
- EC ENGINE: LOW-MAINTENANCE AND EFFICIENT. Thanks to its compact design, low weight and high efficiency, the EC engine enables you to work in an energy efficient manner. This engine also has a long service life.
